Pros: Construction-Ergonomics-Reliability-High Resolution

Cons: High ISO Hold-only CF slots-Autonomy-hard to tame Sensor

Opinion: I have this camera for a year and a half, purchased of course used. I Think that among the APSc Canon is still today the one that offers the best build quality. The camera body is that of a professional in all and for everything, almost identical to the 5d Mk2. The menus and functions are Also almost the same. It is a machine that is satisfying even to hold it in your hand. In My opinion it is also very ergonomic and not too bulky. Defects... A few AF points, but they work fine. It also Has the correction of the Microfocus for Lens, as well as other corrections for the optics. Low Battery Autonomy. ISO Tightness rather scarce, limited dynamic range (but it is of the 2008, there is) Talking about the sensor, its value is also its worst defect: the resolution. It's a high performance sensor in these terms... But only with very high quality optics. With economic Optics Returns files rather soft, and for the same reason is very inclined to the micro-blur, which is difficult to avoid even because of the poor tightness at high ISO, which imposes longer times of modern machines in Short, requires a nice handle, in Compensation remains a very nice iron even at the distance of 11 years

Pros: Almost a pro, ease of use, shutter speed even today, compared to many other new machines.

Cons: Lack of high ISO range (but it is not a problem), it is only for those who want to produce the shot (no video), to enjoy a quality of shutter go necessarily combined with high-end optics and can withstand the comparison with more expensive machine work

Opinion: I bought it new in 2010 and I never regretted it. Ideal companion in all fields of work. Robust and reliable. Certainly now suffers a bit of the passing of the years but considering that photography is mainly optical, if combined with the objectives of series L or art, still manages to keep the comparison on the field (I tried the above lenses thanks to friends and I must say that compared to the kit That I own the improvement is remarkable!). I will continue to use it and hopefully keep it as a second body. Recommended the purchase used considering the prices that is proposed.

Pros: Professional body, ergonomics, speed

Cons: High ISO, dynamic range

Opinion: Was my first camera, purchased used with 190000 shots three years ago about a few hundred euros. The Canon 50 d is a very solid and dependable, but feels a lot of the weight of years for some photographic genres, in fact I sold after reaching approximately 250000 shots (he was losing some hits and pieces), however it is the perfect machine for those who want to start and gain experience.

Cons: Af in lv, big hold over 800, self-programmable (useless)

Opinion: The first love never forgets.rnMia first serious reflex in the world canon.rn I was from 350d .. another planet. Robust massive, surpassed only by his heirs 7d and 7d2 .. nothing to do with the 60 70 80 ... rnLogic has a little dated heart .. but at just great price yet great satisfactions.rnAffect from 5d3, af only 9 Points but all on the cross.

Pros: Burst, magnesium body, good ergonomics, synchro contacts for external flash

Cons: Noise above 800 ISO

Opinion: It 'was my first digital SLR in 2010 when, after many years of analog I switched to the new digitale.Comprata in a physical store giving commute my analog set, the first impact was staggering after 30 shots did not work. Reported in the store I went ahead more than two months, because they sent her in care and I always came back broken, as long as they changed the shutter: the whole course Warranty. After I had no more problems, a "mule" as a machine, robust, reliable and a good yield. I sold it after three years when I switched to full-size. For those who want a sturdy machine with good regulations and no video if it finds one with just a few clicks it is ideal.

Pros: burst, AF micro adjustment, display, ergonomics, image quality, magnesium body, burst

Cons: noise beyond ISO 1600, dense sensor

Opinion: After two years of use I can say that the machine is still a lady and I'm really happy with my 50d, before I had the 400d and the jump has been remarkable is how to handle and the controls on the upper display The menu is easy to operate and includes many advanced settings (including the micro lenses) fantastic even live view which is very convenient in case of excellent macro photos also gust.

Pros: Body, gust, joystick

Cons: To want to find one, the resolution of the display (not important, for me)

Opinion: I own this camera for a few months. I must say that getting here from 1100D is a significant change of pace, primarily with regard to the feeling of the grip and the solidity of the body in general. Very comfortable the joystick and the use of the ring nuts, as well as the upper display. As far as we are talking about APS-C, I would like to point out to anyone who thinks of switching to the 50D coming from an entry-level that the management of the ISO averages is still considerably better than the 1100D, both in terms of yield at the same ISO, and in terms of regulation : Instead of 400-800-1600, you can adjust to intermediate values, which I think make the difference (especially between 800 and 1600). [EDIT-3 years later]-I switched to the 70D. My heart is crying. I hope I don't regret it. I'il update you.

Pros: Body Pro, burst, overall yield of the machine

Cons: Tenuta ISO (but in line with the APS), the absence of some semi-auto functions (shooting T.MIN, ISO Auto), the display resolution (no impact on file ...)

Opinion: Possessed by a year a 70D, excellent APS, good AF (19 cross) ISO held slightly above average APS ... Then to make a gift to my old buy this 50D, used. It 'turned out I sold 70D and I kept my beautiful 50D to be attached to a FF body. (My father bought a 1100D) To make a comic comparison, if the FF is Goku, this is definitely Vegeta 50D machine :) We speak: despite 50D dates back to 2008, compared to the most current APS do not see this big gap in terms of ISO held ... in the end we are there, it is an APS with its limitations. That is why I preferred to sell the 70D, was economically evaluated more and the final quality does not then differed greatly. We analyze in detail the cons: the resolution is 15Mpx, not suitable for lovers of the crop, this must be adhered against while shooting. The sensor is beautiful dense, it takes good lenses (my mounts a 50 1.8 STM that helps the car when the light is scarce). Missing some carB convenient, better than you there is only the 7 series, otherwise it is not worth it to spend € 1,000 on type 80D machines and the like, unless you're talking about video. Does not feel the age indeed, this reflex can make itself preferable to many more modern rivals. In short, with € 300 we will take home a classic SLR, good quality and excellent workmanship. Speaking exclusively to photography is to be preferred to the current ODA that innovate little, they cost three times and profitable deals so do not do the work of a 5D mkIII ... Of course, the lack of some automatic and intrinsic limits of the machine require a little ' handle (not that I have it), but the car is worth and gives great satisfaction.

Pros: Weather sealed magnesium body, burst, fighting machine in extreme conditions, AF.

Cons: Not more than 800 ISO, monitor little resolute, viewfinder 100%

Opinion: After two and a half years of honorable service in extreme conditions of rain and ice and he had never missed a beat, I have decided to open the 7D its natural continuation waiting for prices to come down the 7DMk2.rnLa 50D has an exceptional body absolutely not be compared to the 60D and 70D are a new area of ??amateur SLR. The 50D is the mother instead of the 7D. Good burst, tropicalization, magnesium body, AF significant although few points compared to machines oggi.rnI RAW churning are great but you have to take a little 'hands with the sviluppo.rnInsomma a fantastic car today and now affordable to a price around EUR 300-350 in excellent condition, suitable for beginners and does not want a plastic body that if there is condensation on breaths. :) Especially if you do sports photo where the burst of 6.2 is a great aiuto.rnrn

Pros: tropicalization Machine body solid and well built -good especially with AF lenses USM L - fast enough in the shot .. It is a great price for a great second camera body

Cons: Held high ISO almost unusable above 2000-Monitor is not very definite-life batteria..ne need some spare ..

Opinion: Excellent machine as secondary body .. It is a350 € and take home a car built much better than a 60 / 70D even if the sensor keeps his years .. Fast robust and reliable even if the battery does not last very little iso .. compared to the APS-C but today is fine up to 1600 if the exposure is done well .. Great burst and great pity that the AF points are distant from each other .. Viewfinder does not cover 100% this is one thing I hate Canon viewfinder 100% is obtained from 5D up .. Nikon offers it already from the 7000 series ..

Pros: I cover weight viewfinder commands burst exposure

Cons: AF points clear but too far apart

Opinion: I come from a 500D, then the sensor already know him well, everything else is new. Compared to the younger sister I find the screen back more prone to reflections and miscommunications with strong light cast on it. Good burst, empties very quickly (3/2 eye using a 800x over ... no need to go as the controller manages up to 65MB / s) rnBatteria that does not last very own if you use a lot of burst, but perhaps is only antiquated (the battery). For me, huge viewfinder: DrnInsomma, I can only advise you, especially if you find it on the € 280 rnUP: I find ISO improved from the 500D, as far as I am fully usable up to 1250, OK 1600, no 2000, 2500 ok .. 3200 only if very well exposed. H1 and H2 useless except for emergency.

Pros: solid battery life (with battery GRYP) used price

Cons: a bit difficult to tame, weight for those coming from the Olympus E620 or similar like me but after all the strength you pay

Opinion: after years of militancy in olympus both analog and digital, and the last was the 620, I decided to change and the choice fell on canon. found used with battery GRYP 4 batteries and zoom 55/250 at a great price, since he had only 7000 shots. the menu despite being complex and straightforward and is done in a hurry to get in tune. the burst and excellent. despite the weight and always well-balanced advice, as others to use optical quality to have a good yield. In fact, the 55/250 and was sold almost immediately in favor of Tamron 70/300 stabilized. To be my first canon can only be satisfied, even if I were to buy a second body that would sell the non .A thanks and duty towards those who wrote reviews here on Juza who helped me greatly in the choice, given the tight budget at my disposal. at high ISO (up to 1600) the noise shows up with a bit of pp many files are recovered.

Pros: Building, 6 fps burst, price in used now, ergonomics and controls, micro AF, good central point, with video function added change sw.

Cons: noise over the ISO 1600, ISO auto manually fixed to 400, with the AF points side just enough for static subjects.

Opinion: After thousands of shots, I can only speak well of this body, sturdy, solid and pesante.I controls are very similar to professional machines as 5d mark II and 7D as double ring and joystick very comfortable and precise, very good screen, defined, with anti-reflection, I think the same mounted on the 5d II. The 50D is the evolution of 40D from many points of view: the body and kept the burst, have been added to the micro AF (useful), implemented the focus contrast in live view, a higher resolution LCD, 5 mp in most (but a sensor more noisy and difficult to manage), and auto ISO up to 1600 for the history of the auto ISO 50D.rnLa blocked 400 manually (as with other Canon cameras of those years) puzzles me and I think no senso..Per else it remains a great camera with a central point quite responsive and a blast enough for any photographic genre. Up to 1600 ISO for the use that I do (exclusively amateur) images are used, but attention to detail, until 3200 if sthe well exposes the photo to the right and you are good with the post you can pull out something acceptable, use it in expanded mode it is not recommended, for obvious and exaggerated rise of a banding (very hard to remove) especially in the shadows and much chroma noise (which distorts the color fidelity, as expected by ISO 12800 and expanded in 6400). Tested for bird life, with the center point and a lexar pro 800x (to speed the buffer during the burst), always takes home a few shots with economic objectives as the first 55-250.Con low light or with low contrast subjects the focus easily enters in crisis. Good customization of commands and use the battery grip to me essential to the longer duration of batteria.rnNon I tested the car in the video with Magic Lantern, but from what we saw on the net achieves excellent results even without the ability to record 'audio.

Pros: Body, micro lenses, robustness, quality files, burst, LCD good quality, excellent central AF

Cons: High ISO, requires good optics (but could be a pro), recovery shadows at high iso difficult

Opinion: I have this body for the past two years and I am fully satisfied. Combined with good optics (optical low does not accept invoice) returns file really good and manageable in PP. The noise at high ISO's, but can be corrected in post production with a little forethought. rnIl body is something exceptional, very strong (like a real pro) has double ring top LCD and buttons at the right place, once you're comfortable you control everything with incredible speed.

Pros: Bodied car, great screen, great menu, great autofocus, good burst, AF micro adjustment, excellent color rendering 14-bit channel and L series optics, long range with BG E2, the price of used accessible.

Cons: Dense sensor, ISO sensitivity H1 and H2 unusable, poor recovery in the shadows in the light of the critical situation.

Opinion: For me it is a camera very versatile and easy to use, well designed and with an excellent auto focus (of course it is not like that of a number ONE, but we are on a price range and different product). The only limits are: 1) the sensitivity iso H1 and H2 (very little) but is fully usable up to ISO 1600 with tricks in post production; 2) the sensor a little dense for the technology of a few years ago. We must pay attention to exposure and WB especially in poor lighting conditions and not balanced to avoid the occurrence of noise at medium and high sensitivity. Photographing with L series optics gives the best results both in terms of definition quality and color fidelity, not digests optical mediocre because of the density of the sensor. excellent and very useful functionality for cleaning the sensor, excellent navigation and custom menu. The model in my possession has never shown a problem and has never stopped. Ultimately I considera camera reliable and versatile.

Pros: ergonomics - burst - the price (used of course)

Cons: Battery life - to be able to manage files in PP

Opinion: quoto as indicated by Gulla - great and cheap transition from amateur SLR (450d) to a body definitely real - honestly am a beginner x + manageable (in the file), the 40d - for the rest shutter speed meets the needs of those snaps photo natural / sports - with BG ergonomics is great and you can reach the dimensions of a series 1d - The battery life is relatively short, but is remedied by inserting 2 in BG - only thing that does not convince me is the AF, some also ' Optical does its part but with the 450d less wrong (although it must be acknowledged that some mistakes on fire a burst of 6/8 shots you put it in the bill ... and 450d of shots at max it was 3) - x as I personally think that covers the ISO sensitivity where you get the best compromise between shooting parameters and quality is 320 (pictured naturalistic course where shutter speeds are bound by a moving subject and optical tele) in any case I did decent shots ISO 1250 in good light and ... ISO 320 shots just acceptable in light condition critical (andI do not think it was the fault of the lens) --- ultimately a body that provides access to decent performance at an affordable price and on which it is worth investing in quality optics

Pros: Fabulous body, looks like a pro. Gust, AF micro adjustment, screen

Opinion: I am now three years that I have it, and I did do a lot of pictures, if you are not 'in extreme conditions, I'd say' good car, among other things now recommend it to those starting with 350 € on the used market, are easily found. It needs a little 'habit for the fact of having a sensor a bit' thick, so at first, it seemed to me that lack of clarity, in truth 'shake-it was just for my ineptitude. I do not find that the AF is precise for hunting, but for the rest, and 'excellent.

Pros: Construction, ergonomics, burst, autofocus, display, AF micro adjustment

Cons: Yield over ISO 1600 (H1 and H2 unusable except in an emergency), white balance indoors are not homogeneous. Lack video (activated by Magic Lantern)

Opinion: After two years of use I can say that it is still a lady machine: the construction is excellent (magnesium body and semitropicalizzato) and the layout of the controls perfect (with the double ring, the joystick and buttons double function operating speed is remarkable). The 9-point AF Cross is very fast and accurate even on the side (with static subjects or almost) and the center also good for action shots. The AF micro adjustment is necessary on certain objectives from the large opening and allows to obtain the best optics in possession. The burst is remarkable and with UDMA card buffer is emptied in a flash. The picture quality is good but the 15 MP sensor tends to undermine the quality of optical media. At low ISO noise is well managed. At ISO 1600 is very present but homogeneous, in 3200 begins to knead the details while H1 and H2 are to be used only when needed (to 12800 is also a certain banding) .rnIn general seems good for APS-C every chancedoes not suffer too much of the weight of years.

Pros: Construction, ergonomics, shutter speed, accuracy of every point AF system, resolution, holding up to 1600 ISO, AF micro adjustment, monitor bright and saturated colors.

Cons: Battery life, on the AF side soggedtti moving almost non-existent.

Opinion: I own this car for 2 years. I come from 450D and 550D. I find good in everything, or at least in everything that interests me. Robust and simple, no frills. I'm lucky with the coupled machines + optics but I often use the lateral points of focus for static subjects and the fire is always precise. I can not say the same with moving subjects, you have to let go of the side steps and use only the center. For what they complain about all or many, and that is the low resistance at high iso, I have done many tests than the 7D and the difference is a bit 'less than one stop to ISO 1600 and up. I must say that I avoid going over the 1600 iso. Use high iso when I need a very fast 1/1000, for example. Up to 800 iso much prefer the noise / grain of the 15-megapixel sensor rather than the 18 mpx that equips the 550D/60D/7D. You have to make a point. Many buy dark lenses and then pretend to go with the iso. In addition, everyone has seen the pictures only video and no printing. I print a lot, photo album or on Canon Pixma /Selphy. Poor battery life, compared to what would do me the 550D. There is also the micro perspective that has been useful for Sigma suffering from back focus. I do not think will sell anything, rather I would like to pair it with an old 5D or a 1Ds Mark II as soon as I find a good opportunity. If there is just one thing that I envy her older sister 7D is the fabulous 1x viewfinder and 100% coverage.

Pros: Strength, speed, AF micro adjustment, burst

Cons: Yield at high iso

Opinion: I wanted the 50D at all costs, coming from an entry level 450D, after taking it in my hand I realized I have a semi-pro body. Double ring commands, the display on the upper part of the body, possibility to correct back / front focus of the lenses (micro). The yield above 800 iso starts to be annoying, but still workable. Personally shot most of the time at 100 iso, but ultimately I need to go above 1600 then after thinking about it so I sold it only for the move to fullframe. A great car, nothing to say. The burst is amazing, 6.3 fps. Quick AF preciso.Quando and keep it in your hand you realize that the building is indeed high qualità.Manca tropicalization but is an optional negligible. The file quality is excellent with appropriate lenses, yet keep the market although it is a different generation from the current trade bodies.

Pros: Gust, accurate AF with the central point

Cons: Poor performance at high ISO (say, over the 800-1000), AF points lateral ineffective for fast-moving subjects

Opinion: It 'was the camera that has replaced the 40D (which I've never had a particular feeling) and I have to say that the progress has been remarkable. A much better performance at high ISO (though not always to lofty levels). Precise autofocus with the center point (I have used with the 400mm f5.6L and misses very few photos this pairing). Unfortunately, using the AF points side is utopia for birds, if you do not have a solid background not hardly ever catches fire. If you want a good car, you do not want to spend so much and not interested in the video there is no better machine than the 50D

Pros: grip, functions (micro-adjustment MAF), construction, display, burst

Cons: Viewfinder (dim and insufficient funds), construction (dust and dirt infiltrate), made in medium and high ISO (from 1600 onwards)

Opinion: Joys and sorrows, since little almost 3 years ago I decided to add to my 40D the baby "sister." I immediately noticed how the 50D was more difficult to "tame" and required the optical level higher than the 40D, to make better. But, once the measures taken, gave me great satisfaction, so much to get me to sell the 40D for non-use. Then it sounds contradictory to have entered the "construction" in both the PRO in CONS: if, in fact, on the one hand the 50D gives a general feeling of solidity and is generally well protected from the elements, on the other hand after a while 'intensive exchange of lenses you'll see the dust get between the viewfinder and pentaprism, and stay there! The real sticking point, however (apart from a responsive and accurate autofocus only the center point) is the yield at high ISO when shooting in RAW, even at ISO 1600 are noted in some low-light conditions, a annoying banding in the shadows, it becomes untenable to 3200 and beyond. Sin, because the rest is a machine handyman, thanks also to the considerable burst. Recommended for those who bear the BG (such as size and weight), because the batteries are ciucciate rather quickly, and in extreme conditions (cold) last davero too little. Personally, I hate the BG, because I prefer the maneuverability and lightness, so I fitted a set of batteries "third-party" that last longer than the original, and I solved the problem ;)

Pros: Robust machine body, handle great, good burst, ease of use, completeness of commands (double wheel), AF micro adjustment (good for fixed focal lengths), good color rendering, good image quality

Cons: 95% coverage viewfinder, AF fast and accurate especially with optical quality (all points are cross only f 5.6 or less), high noise at high ISO (> ISO 1600), especially in light conditions difficle

Opinion: The 50D is my first DSLR and I was considering that as an analogue SLR Zenit, the technological leap has been remarkable :-). It is now two years that the use, not so frequently, I made him little less than 4000 shots, but I am very satisfied. Except kinds macro, still life and studio photography, my shots are very varied, nature photography, landscapes, architecture and interior / exterior, reportage, portraits. Use by a feeling of professionalism definitely higher than the series xxxD, in terms of robustness, usability and performance. The absence of sealing under conditions of normal use, you do not hear at all. I have used it in Argentina through the subtropical zone of the falls of Iguazu (high humidity, water spray from the falls and pioggierellina) to Patagonia (dust and wind), and also in Morocco (high temperatures, wind, sand and even drizzle) , and the car came out unscathed, I have not had the need to clean the sensor. Of course if you want topictures in the rain or the wind pointing their sand / dust, maybe it is better to think of a tropical (but in that case also targets must be). AF micro-adjustment I still have not ever used, although it uses the body even old optical Zenit Still, be aware that there certainly is an advantage. The AF I find it fast enough, unfortunately, to exploit it to the fullest and all the points are required optical quality, but currently I have not yet reached the limit. The 15-Mp sensor with high ISO can have a yield unsatisfactory especially when lighting conditions are poor. The yield, however, also depends on the format in which you are printing. The coverage of only 95% can give problems to get the best composition during shooting, however, to date where the use of the PP is now usual can also be a defect acceptable. Under conditions of adequate light, the machine generates a file with a good color rendering (directly in jpeg). The burst is more than satisfactory, they better just machines of superior category, is obviously also affected by the type of CF used. I cF with a 30 MB / second for now I'm fine. To conclude this machine I think is great for fans who, not being a beginner, want a good tool to cultivate their passion confronting any kind of photographic and in more general conditions. It 'obvious that in specific cases and applications for more professional is better but also to higher costs.

Opinion: My second reflex, after the 450d, I am very satisfied that I have listed the pros have also been reported in relation to canon 450d, which I considered too noisy in the shot. the bursts at 6.3 fps is also a great treat, and the ergonomics of hands for those who have generously sized is perfect. but I think the battery does not last long, and when marks half capacity to esaurisi-up time is short. I would have preferred to have the opportunity to go beyond the + -2 stops for the show, and not least the noise from ISO 800 up begins to be evident.

Pros: Rugged magnesium alloy, ergonomics, intuitive menus, large LCD display, speed bursts, possibilities of micro AF adjustment, excellent combination of the 15 MP sensor and Digic 4 processor, extended ISO range, good color rendering.

Cons: Missing speedlight transmitter integrated ISO management over 1600 critical miss 100% viewfinder, the display dim, requires the use of professional lenses, JPG improved.

Opinion: The Canon 50D was my first digital SLR, and after a year and a half of use, I'm satisfied. The body is solid and sits well, giving a good sense of control apparatus and basic commands. At first it may seem a little heavy, but I think weight and size are justified to achieve a proper balance, especially if used with some fixed lens, "white" and heavy. RNE 'a jack of all trades, but does not mind at all sports photography and / or nature. The crop factor of the APS-C sensor can only help the great park Canon optics, preferably L-series! Yes, because the 15 ml of pixels, they need appropriate lenses to make a difference with other bodies with less MP. The machine is fast and 6.3 frames per second are a tangible reality. The skills and speed of this machine I tested in a school of falconry, and the track at Misano in SBK'11 and I can say that combined with a modest 24-105 L, battery grip and a good card UDMA 6 is unlikely that something scappi in front of us without being photographed. The focus is fast and accurate and for a few days is also available firmware update (1.0.8) for the use of UDMA 7 CF cards, even faster! What about an upgrade to a machine out of production? I will be pleasantly surprised! RnSeppur the weather sealing is not comparable to a Canon SLR series 1 or 7, I can assure you that the resistance to weathering is up to the name. The peaks of the Schmittenhohe in Austria I was seized with a sudden downpour that lasted almost an hour. On that occasion, I did everything to protect my equipment, but the water was really great, and finally arrived at the shelter, it took some time because everything came back to work, after the stand-by automatico.rnIl speech ISO is complex and perhaps are not able to give all the details of this feature, certainly the management of high ISO is not comparable to the latest SLR on the market, even though the latter are just more "brave" to ela27affidabilità of the product, will allow anyone to shoot for years without thinking too much about megapixels, processors, and display adjustable. I just hope that the next Canon products are actually a step forward, without too follow the redundant and obvious rules of marketing.

Pros: Rugged design, excellent ergonomics, full of functionality, good image quality, fast 6.3fps burst, accurate AF with micro

Cons: High noise at high sensitivity, high pixel density, lack of sealing, a bit 'heavy

Opinion: The machine is suitable for the amateur photographer who wants something more than the standard # # # D but do not want to spend a fortune with the 7D or the full format: full, great customization possibilities (two wheel positions for user-mode), also suitable for sports photography or action, even if 9 AF points are a bit 'reductive ... The most important flaw is the noise, far too marked and visible even at low sensitivity if shooting in the dark; in good condition, however, the output is acceptable, at least up to 800ISO, and the loss of detail is not consistent. 15 megapixels on a sensor so small unfortunately make only if there are mounted optics of a certain level, otherwise highlight the defects of the lens. As the body is much better than its replacement 60D, although the latest technology allows greater image quality, I do not think the absence of a video flaw, but someone may be important. Too bad it's already impossible to find in stores, I have bought used a couple of months ago, this could also be a good second body for professionals, though obviously less than the 7D

Pros: Resistant, Processor digit 4, Wide range of ISO, Easy to use, Good live view, good grip, good flash, 6.3 fps help to capture the soogetti moving more easily, large and brilliant display

Cons: 95% coverage viewfinder, 15 megapixel reduce the image quality at high ISO, there is no iso 50, little autonomy, Af little fast, 9-point AF are few, little density of pixels in the display.

Opinion: The 50d is a classical machine. It is difficult to determine what is the specialized 50d, 7d and the 1dmkIV are made for action photography, the 5DMKII and 1dsmkIII specialize in landscape photography and architecture, 600d and 60d for creative photography, the 550d and 500d for those who want a portable machine, the 1100d for anyone who is a novice amateur who needs to learn the commands. While the 50d shows very good results in any situation. The 50d is my first SLR and it will be much longer. The alternatives are few, the 60d is an alternative to 50d for those who want more megapixels, the swiveling display and some photographic filter, personally, despite the 60d was the evolution of the 50d, I still prefer the latter, as it has some features professional. A more valid is the 7d, which is more powerful, faster, a better yield ISO, more megapixels, the 100% coverage, etc. .. Now I do not feel the need to buy the 7d, I had that amount of money I would buy a good goal. In conclusion, I recommend the 50d for photographers who are undecided to buy a camera and want a good quality image.
